Make a difference in the lives of children and adults with autoimmune encephalitis today – #GivingTuesday and Amazon Smile

November 28, 2017

Make a difference in the lives of children and adults who are suffering from this rare form of brain inflammation. #GivingTuesday is today! Black Friday and Cyber Monday have passed so now please take the time to give to others in need. Your gift to the Autoimmune Encephalitis Alliance is used to help patients find doctors, and resources that otherwise might not be available to them. We provide information on what the first 100 days of the disease might look like, offer documents to organize medical records and doctor treatment visits, talk directly to those in the midst of illness, and much more.

You can also help support the fight against autoimmune encephalitis when you shop through Amazon. “AmazonSmile” is a simple and automatic way for you to support AEA every time you shop, at no cost to you. When you shop at you’ll find the exact same low prices, selection and convenient shopping experience as Amazon.com, with the added bonus that Amazon will donate a portion of the purchase price to AEA.

To shop at AmazonSmile simply go to smile.amazon.com from the web browser on your computer or mobile device. You may also want to add a bookmark to smile.amazon.com to make it even easier to return and start your shopping.

You use your same account on Amazon.com and AmazonSmile. Your shopping cart, Wish List, wedding or baby registry, and other account settings are also the same. More information can be found at AmazonSmile.

On behalf of patients, families, caregivers, and the medical community, thank you for giving this Tuesday.
